Radio operation with RDS (Radio Data System)
The Radio Data System will enhance your
enjoyment when you listen to FM radio sta-
tions.
More and more radio stations broadcast
RDS information along with their regular
programming.
As soon as a programme has been identi-
fied, the station name including a regional
identifier, if applicable, will appear in the dis-
play, for example, NDR1 NDS (regional pro-
gramme in Lower Saxony, Germany).
When RDS is activated, the preset buttons
become programme buttons. You now know
exactly which programme you have tuned
into, making it easy to find the desired sta-
tion quickly.
But RDS offers you further advantages:
AF - Alternative frequency
The AF (Alternative Frequency) function
makes sure that the radio always tunes into
the strongest frequency of the currently se-
lected programme automatically.
This function is activated when “AF” appears
in the display.
In order to switch this function on or off,
• press the AF·TA button until a beep is
emitted.
While searching for the strongest reception
signal, the radio may switch to mute briefly.
If “SEARCH” appears in the display when
the radio is switched on or one of the stored
frequencies recalled, the unit is already au-
tomatically searching for an alternative fre-
quency.
“SEARCH” will disappear from the display
when the alternative frequency has been
found or after the frequency band has run
through completely.
If the reception quality of the selected pro-
gramme deteriorates beyond a certain point:
• Tune into another station.
REG - regional programme
Certain radio programmes are split up at
times into regional programmes offering lo-
cal information. The 1st programme broad-
cast by NDR, for example, offers pro-
grammes with different contents in the north-
ern German states of Schleswig-Holstein,
Hamburg and Lower Saxony at certain times
of the day.
If you are listening to a particular regional
programme and wish to continue doing so,
select “REG ON” in the DSC mode.
If you leave the service area of the regional
programme you are tuned into, or if you
would like to take advantage of full RDS
service, switch to “REG OFF” in the DSC
mode.
32
• Select the appropriate waveband by
pressing BA/TS.
• Tune in a station with the rocker switch
(either automatically
/ or manually
<< >>).
• Press the desired preset button until
the radio resumes play after the mut-
ing (takes approximately 2 seconds,
confirmed by a beep).
Now the station has been stored.
The display will indicate which preset but-
ton is currently activated.
Automatically storing the
strongest stations with Travel-
store
You can automatically store the six most
powerful FM stations in your current recep-
tion area sorted according to their signal
strength. This function is particularly conven-
ient on longer trips.
• Press the BA/TS button for 2 seconds.
“T-STORE” will appear in the display.
The six strongest FM stations will be auto-
matically stored on the memory bank “T”
(Travelstore). When this process has been
completed, the radio will play the strongest
station.
If desired, stations can also be stored man-
Manual tuning with << >>
You can also tune into a station manually.
Requirement:
AF and PTY must be switched off (i.e. the
symbols do not light up in the display).
If necessary, deactivate these functions:
• Press AF·TA or PTY.
Manual tuning:
• Press << >>; the frequency will change
in short intervals in the downwards or
upwards direction.
If you hold << >> pressed to the left or the
right on the rocker switch, the frequency
scan will speed up.
Scrolling through the broadcast-
ing networks (FM only)
You can use the << >> buttons to tune into
stations in your reception area.
If it is possible to receive several pro-
grammes in the same broadcasting network,
you can scroll through them in the forwards
direction by pressing >>, or backwards
using the << button, e.g. NDR 1, 2, 3, 4,
N-JOY, ...
For this to work properly you must have al-
ready tuned into the stations at least once
and “AF” must be active (lights up in the dis-
play).
To do this, you can start the Travelstore seek
operation:
• Press BA/TS for 2 seconds; the sys-
tem will start to run through the fre-
quency band.
If “AF” is not lit up,
• Hold AF·TA down. A beep sounds and
“AF” appears.
This fulfils the requirements for selecting
stations with << >>.
Switching between the memory
banks (FM)
You can switch between the memory banks
1, 2 and T in order to store stations and re-
call them later.
The currently selected memory bank ap-
pears in the display.
• Press the BA/TS button as many times
as necessary until the desired memory
bank lights up in the display.
Storing stations
On FM, you can store six stations on the
preset buttons 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 for each of the
memory banks (1, 2, T).
On MW/LW, you can also store six stations
each

PTY priority
Situation:
PTY is switched on and lights up in the dis-
play.
No station offering the selected programme
type can be found currently in your recep-
tion range (with seek tuning or scan).
The set will switch back to the station previ-
ously tuned into.
As soon as it is possible to receive a pro-
gramme in the broadcasting network with

tion NDR2 for the duration of the
“POP” programme.
During cassette or CD operation, the set will
also switch to the programme offering the
selected PTY within the broadcasting net-
work.

system will switch back to the previous mode
(radio, cassette or CD).
Note:
As already mentioned, these functions are
only supported by a limited number of RDS
stations at the present time.
Storing programme types

Traffic programme station reception with RDS-EON
Traffic announcement priority
on/off
If the priority for traffic announcement pro-
grammes is activated, “TA” will light up in
the display.
To switch the priority on or off:
• Press the AF·TA button. “TA” appears.
If you press AF·TA while a message is be-
ing broadcast, this message will be inter-
rupted. The unit will then switch back to the
previous mode. The priority for other traffic
messages remains active.
Please note that several buttons have no
function while a traffic announcement is
broadcast.
Warning beep
If you leave the reception area of the traffic
programme station currently tuned into, you
will hear a warning beep after approximate-
ly 30 seconds.
This alarm tone will also be emitted if you
press a preset button for a station which
does not send the traffic programme signal
(TP).
Switching the warning beep off
a) Tune into another station offering traf-
fic information:
• Press the rocker switch or
• press a preset button which has a
traffic programme station allocated
to it.
Alternatively:
b) Switch off the priority for traffic an-
nouncements:
• Press TA.
“TA” will disappear from the dis-
play.
Automatic seek tuning start
(Cassette and CD changer operation)
If you leave the reception area for the traffic
programme station you have tuned into
while you are listening to a cassette or CD,
the system will automatically start search-
ing for a new traffic programme.
If no such station is found within approxi-
mately 30 seconds, a warning beep will
sound every 30 seconds. To switch the
warning beep off, proceed as described
above.
The abbreviation “EON” stands for En-
hanced Other Networks, which means that
information is exchanged within a radio net-
work.
Many FM radio stations provide their serv-
ice area with traffic messages at regular in-
tervals.
Along with their programmes, all traffic pro-
gramme stations transmit a special carrier
signal, which is decoded by your car radio.
If this signal is identified, “TP” will appear in
the display (Traffic Programme).
In addition to these, there are also stations
which do not actually transmit traffic infor-
mation themselves, but by using RDS-EON
it is possible for them to forward the traffic
messages broadcast by another traffic
programme station in the same radio net-
work.
If you want to have the priority for traffic
announcements activated while listening to
one of these stations (e.g. NDR4), “TA” must
appear on the display panel.
If a traffic announcement is broadcast, the
radio will automatically switch to the linked
traffic programme station (in this case,
NDR2) for the duration of the message and
return to the original programme (NDR4)
afterwards.
